libreoffice print pdf from .doc using cli

[chris1497]

does anyone know how to do this?

take a .doc file and print it to a .pdf using libreoffice?

There's a "Print to PDF" button on the middle toolbar in LibreOffice Writer. What do you mean by "using CLI"?? As far as I know, LibreOffice doesn't work from the command line.

ah. I just assumed it worked from the cli the way openoffice does.

I know of the way to do it once the gui is open. I would like cli access though, so I don't have to launch the gui. and so I can script automate conversion.

quick google indicates that it should be possible

-convert-to may prove useful
